The 1975’s Matty Healy addresses past controversies and invites dad Tim on stage at Finsbury Park gig

Matty Healy has addressed his recent controversial remarks during The 1975‘s headline at Finsbury Park, and brought out his father for a rendition of ‘All I Need To Hear’.The frontman addressed recent backlash during the band’s huge outdoor London show last night (July 2), and explained that while he regrets some of his decisions, he often makes controversial remarks to entertain his fans.The most recent controversy stems from his appearance on the podcast The Adam Friedland Show — which heard him joke about “queerbaiting”, laugh at offensive remarks made by the hosts, and join in when they began mocking various accents.Addressing the situation while talking to the audience in London last night, he said: “I’m not someone who takes things for granted.

Fall Out Boy felt COVID was too “on the nose” for their We Didn’t Start The Fire cover

Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz has been discussing his band’s updated cover of Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’. He’s explained the thinking behind the post-1989 events that they included, and also those that they didn’t – most notably the COVID pandemic, which, in a song about significant world events from the last 34 years, you might have thought would feature quite prominently.Speaking to Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Wentz said that the idea to update the song had been “brewing for so long”, but until recently he had been trying to convince other artists that they should do it.“I’ve been trying to get somebody to do it for four years”, he explained. “And finally Patrick [Stump, frontman] was like, ‘We should just do it’”.With that decided, then came the task of choosing what to include in the verses.

Ezra Miller’s Legal Troubles: A Timeline of Arrests and Controversies Before ‘The Flash’

Jordan Moreau Warner Bros. and DC Studios’ tentpole summer release, “The Flash,” finally hits theaters this weekend, but the superhero movie had been beset by delays and off-screen controversies involving star Ezra Miller in the years before its release. “The Flash” was initially revealed back in October 2014 as part of the inaugural DC Universe slate. It received a 2018 release date, alongside eventual releases like “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” “Suicide Squad,” “Wonder Woman,” “Aquaman” and “Shazam.” However, parts of that plan didn’t come to fruition. Standalone “Cyborg” and “Green Lantern” movies were scrapped, and a two-part “Justice League” movie by Zack Snyder became one film.

Abrams’ “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and Rian Johnson’s “Star Wars: The Last Jedi.” So it was a surprise when Serkis, in human form, popped up in “Andor,” Tony Gilroy’s live-action prequel series to 2016’s “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”Serkis plays Kino Loy, an inmate in an Imperial prison that is also holding Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor. Loy is a gruff enforcer who is slowly radicalized by Andor and his escape plan.

The Mexican-born Luna — who rose to prominence in Alfonso Cuarón’s 2001 coming-of-age masterpiece “Y tu mamá también” — joined “Star Wars” for 2016’s “Rogue One,” a prequel about the band of rebel spies, led by Luna’s Cassian Andor, that steal the plans for the Death Star.

This story about “Obi-Wan Kenobi” first appeared in the Limited Series/Movies issue of TheWrap’s Emmy magazine.“Obi-Wan Kenobi” seems like the kind of no-brainer, easy layup, slam dunk that is conceived quickly and executed even more quickly. We’re talking a limited series from Disney+ and Lucasfilm that followed the titular Jedi (played, once again, by Ewan McGregor) in the lonesome time between the prequels and 1977’s “Star Wars: A New Hope.” But it was not so fast and easy. In fact, for years, McGregor had no idea if he’d ever play the wise mentor again.
